The reason for the "Claris" monomer is due to the fact that DiR has many different gyms around Barcelona and this particular location is on Carrer del Claris, about two blocks west from Placa de Catalunya. Claris offers many amenities for its members including treadmills, stationary bikes, resistance machines, free weights, numerous exercise classes, a steam room, and a sauna.
I would try to go to the gym every day either before or after my CEA classes. I would see other students from CEA exercising or working out almost every time I went to the gym.
The gym had a fairly sophisticated method of entrance. They required two forms of identification, which came as a wristband seen in the picture to the left. After you scanned your wristband a machine read your fingerprint and allowed you entry into the gym.
The gym is open every day from 7AM-830PM and then on Sundays it is open from 9AM-2:45PM. The first time I tried to workout on a Sunday I was sad to find that the gym had already closed and I walked all the way across town for nothing. I loved spending my time at this gym because it had state of the art equipment, its staff was extremely helpful, and it kept me healthy during my time here in Barcelona.
